Here’s my latest work-in-progress; a manier noir drawing in graphite worked up from a drawing in my sketchbook. I get very dirty doing manier noir drawings and my studio is covered in a fine film of graphite and charcoal – hoovering on Monday then 😦 . This evening I went to the opening of the Winter show at the Saith Gallery in Burry Port which had work featuring, amongst others, Swansea artists (and my chums) Alan Figg, Helen Finney,and Melanie Ezra. Burry Port is a tiny seaside town just past Llanelli with a lovely old stone harbour fringed by Georgian houses.

Hi Rosie! been following you for several months now, and never comment. How rude of me. Anyway, i LOVE the white-on-black drawings you do like this one, very dramatic
Thank you for looking at my work :). I really like this technique.
As for your WIP, keep whipping it on us.
😉
Looks great! What did we do before we had vacuum cleaners eh? Sounds like an amazing place to have a show too!
Incredible!
Thank you. I love this technique – I get to draw with sandpaper and wire wool.
